Hey guys! I'm currently 5 weeks post op (30 Ibs down since my surgery date) and will be able to transition to regular foods at week 8. I was curious to know who hasn't had problems with eating foods we are all lectured about avoiding, in moderation (Pizza, bread, fried foods). I am 25 years old and a lot younger than most I've seen on this forum. My goal for Bariatric surgery is to exercise, and portion control while making better food choices, but I never planned on ruling anything out. I'm not an emotional eater or have a mean sweet tooth, my biggest problem with my weight was how much I ate. Is it possible to live a balanced lifestyle after Bariatric surgery without completely cutting out junk food?

Congratulations!!! I am 25 and also a shortie haha I'm 5 feet even. I am 2 weeks post op today, and like you I feel well. No complications so far. My surgery weight was 264 ( in the beginning I was 274) and I am currently down to 245.I hope my journey is as good to me as it is to you.

I got my sleeve done 10/13 so I am 3 days post op. I agree the first day I was so groggy from the anesthesia I could barely get fluids down. I feel a lot better as of today. I'm ready to progress to at least soft foods! I will be focusing on water and chicken broth in addition to my protein intake

Hi everyone! I'm 25 and am scheduled for surgery October 13th. Anyone my age or advice or tips from anyone else?
